Pacifica radio in New York City 99.5 WBAI has a program most weekday evenings that's dedicated to Occupy Wall Street. Yesterday evening they touched on the same subject in my post

mainly about the future of Occupy Wall Street, anarchism, voting. The participants are leading nonleaders of Occupy. The discussion deserves a respectful listening to. The discussion featured George Martinez, an Occupy Wall Street and Occupy the Hood activist who is running for Congress in New York City. Here is his policy statement:

In my opinion if he wins or even makes a strong showing in the Democratic primary and goes on to take the Congressional seat this will be a big plus for the movement and Occupy.
We speak of a diversity of tactics. Electoral politics can be but one of several lines of attack for the movement. I will be sending this link to people who participated in the comments on Part 1. Thanks all for your comments.
Occupy Wall Street Radio on WBAI 99.5 and WBAI.org is informative. People ought to check it out weekday nights 6:30- 7:00.
